Sarah Ferguson, the former Duchess of York, will be further embarrassed by this latest tranche of emails.
In 2009, she describes Epstein as “the brother I have always wished for” and enthusiastically gives him details of her latest business ideas.
She didn’t travel lightly. When visiting him, there’s a request on her behalf for four apartments.
Later in the same year, after the crash of a business venture, she writes to Epstein: “I urgently need 20,000 pounds for rent today. The landlord has threatened to go to the newspapers if I don’t pay. Any brainwaves?”
There are lawyers’ letters about deals to pay off her creditors, and an email from Epstein claiming to have helped her financially for 15 years.
The former Duchess of York has been approached for comment.
Behind her back, Epstein seems to have been far from complimentary, sending another contact a link to a newspaper article about Ferguson, with the comment: “Pic of F from Friday not the prettiest sight.”
None of this latest information could be called pretty. It remains to be seen whether the public, and the authorities, feel they’ve seen more than enough, or whether there are even more questions to be answered by the beleaguered former Duke of York.
